Pride Maven

I have had my eye on these for many years, and I’m so overjoyed to have them in my dovetail collection. They are a little different than my maven slims, but in a slightly more dressed up way - there’s less stretch to them. Anytime I look down at that stitching on the cuff, I can’t help but be proud to show off my queerness in jean form 🌈

The denim these are made out of is the kind that I expect to fade into a glorious and well loved pair full of character. They run a little bit smaller than the maven in a duct style fabric. I landed between sizes and decided to size up because try as I might I eventually forget and dry them and then cry when they no longer fit. I typically wear a four or six in dovetails pants I went with an eight and gave em a good hot wash and dry right away. They are still a little roomy but they still look great on. The rainbow seam is amazing. I’m very pleased with this purchase!

Seriously so great, and look so good!

These are awesome jeans. I love the fabric, I love the selvedge detail. However, I did have to go two sizes up from my normal Dovetail size (could even have gone another size, if I wanted them a little more relaxed). But this is, I think, because this is more like the old jean fabric I grew up with. It has virtually no stretch. In turn, though, it should be a durable, long wearing pair of jeans. I expect it to mold to my shape better over time, too. The fun selvedge is such a neat little addition.

Cone denim is awesome, and I would love to see more like this! A+ to customer service for helping me when I had to return my first pair, and getting me set up with replacement, too. I really love that when unexpected size issues arise, it’s a fairly painless process to remedy.

I accidentally ordered the wrong length for myself ( ended up get 33) and did end up deciding to go up two sizes from my normal pant size. One size up fit , but they are pretty fitted , and I like a roomier fit. I really love these pants in the size and length I have them in! They are a thicker jean material and definitely better quality than any other jeans I've ever owned, and the pockets are amazing!
